Michael Lumb has been rewarded for his recent England Lions performances with a place in England’s provisional World Twenty20 squad – and Dimi Mascarenhas has been recalled.

Lumb scored match-winning 58 not out from just 35 balls as the Lions produced a Twenty20 upset by beating England last month, before scoring 110 in a one-day match against Pakistan A last week.

Mascarenhas has not played for England’s Twenty20 team since the last World Twenty 20 nine months ago but is now back in the frame.

England selector Geoff Miller said: “All players named have shown their ability in the shortest form of the game and the Selectors have some difficult decisions to make when reducing the squad to 15 players.

"We have a number of young players knocking on the door which underlines the depth in talent currently available and I know all concerned will be hoping they make the final squad for what is a highly anticipated tournament."

The 30-man squad will be cut to 15 on March 30 ahead of the tournament in the Caribbean, which will be played from April 30- May 16.

England squad: Collingwood (capt), Anderson, Bell, Bopara, Bresnan, Broad, Davies, Denly, Finn, Kieswetter, Lumb, Mahmood, Mascarenhas, Morgan, Onions, Pietersen, Plunkett, Prior, Rashid, Shah, Shahzad, Sidebottom, Swann, Tredwell, Trego, Trott, Wainwright, Woakes, Wright, Yardy.
